The Bottineau pioneer. (Bottineau, N.D.) 1885-1895, 1887-01-20

The customs revenues in 1886 amount
ed to $18l, ,571 800. OF said amount near
iy all was tax upon the necessities of
life. Taxes on sugar, molasses, etc.; on
wool and its manufacture; on iron, steel
and manufactures of same; on cotton and
it's manufactures; on fax, hemp and jute;
on chemicals, drugs dyes and medicines,
on glass; on fruits; on nuts; on leather;
on earthenware, stone and china ware;
on breadstufs and other farinaceous
food, etc. OF the sl12, ,4ss. .725, internal rev.
enue, nearly all was tax on the luxuries
of life. Spirits, tobacco and fermented
liquors. With these facts staring him in
the face, who is there that will advocate
the do-nothing policy of congress con.
corning the tariff We favor a reduction
of the surplus revenues of the govern.
ment by reduction Of the tax on the
snecessaries of life, and to leave them for
the present on the luxuries. The, pres.
.ent tariff is Numerically opposite to this
in its principles. A revenue duty on a
few score articles would furnish all our
needfnl customs revenues. There is alb.
solutely no necessity for the extravagant
and prohibitory duties upon 1000 articles;

Temperance Association. The subject
was "The Slums of London" He said
that all OF the poverty, misery and de.

tected liquor traffic. He declared the
greatest power fn England to be the liq-
uor power, as sS00,000,000 worth of liq-
uor in various forms is consumed by the
Britishers yearly. The Church does not
array itself in antagonism to the liquor
power, because to do so would be to re-
feet on the government, which licenses
and protects the traffic and sustains the
Church. ".T -

How to Keep the Carriage New.

The preservation of a carriage depends
largely upon the way in which it Is
housed. The barn OF shed should be airy
and dry, with moderate admission OF
light, otherwise the colors Of painting and
lining will be affected. Do not let the
vehicle be rolled near brick wall, as the
dampncss of the wall will fade the colors
and destroy the varnish. The coach house
should not be connected with the stable OF
next the manure pit, since the ammonia
fumes rising from the manure will dc
more to crack and ruin varnish, and ruin
colors of paint and lining, than all other
causes put together.
DO not allow mud to dry on newly
varniShct carriage; spots and stains will
be the result if you do. Do not permit
water to dry Of itself OH vanished sur
face, but remove all moisture with q
chamois leather only, after the soft sponge
has been used Do not let the leather top
carriages lie long unused with the tops
down, but raise occasionally, taking oil
the strain on the leather and net-stay by
slightly casing the joints. Keep the
moths out of cushions and Innings by fire.

are in good order.

Focts Farmers Ought to Know.

The government tea farm, abont which
there has been so much talk, will be aban-
doned and revert to its owner, according
to the terms of the lease, at the beginning
of the new fiscal year, congress having
provided for the closing out of the inter
ests of the government.
Good blood in horses is every year more
in demand, especially by city buying. The
farmer will find rcadicst sale for his best
bred animals.
Never let clipped horse stand two
minutes without u rug.
Rotation of crops is the surest and SAT-
est plan in farming, and when one OF two
years of pasture are included in the rota-
tion, the benefits will be still greater.

Dino Museum Tragedy.

"Don't walk the plank tonight, Terry!'
pleaded the woman. II must do me duty,
Liza," sternly returned the human fly
"But you'ro so weak after your long sickness
that I'm afraid you'll stick to the plank. "
"Oh, I'll pull through all right, hon. Have
no fear" So the once strong man strapped
on his vacuum producing shoes and was
hoistcd to the glazed surface of the plank
which hung so near the lofty ceiling OF the
theatre.
Once, and laboriously, be went the plank
length. He succeeded in turning to 60 back,
but then stuck fast. The leg muscles were
too weak to overcome the attraction between
the board and the shoes, even sufficiently to
allow the man to drop into the safety net.
The horror stricken wife and the audience
could only shudder and leave him hanging
there. He cannot be taken off until gym
mast visits the town who uses the same sort
of trapczc and nets employed by our stranded
friend. The ceiling of the variety theatre is
too high, and the board in an almost inac-
cessible position. The only man who can
make the rescue is now playing years en-
